The state of Tennessee is the next state to ban the teaching of Critical Race Theory in schools.

On Tuesday, Republican Gov. Bill Lee signed Senate Bill 623 into law that will ban public schools from indoctrinating the state’s children with the anti-white propaganda.

Gov. Lee had signaled ahead of time that he would sign the bill if it got to his desk.

“What I am most concerned about is that our education system reminds students that history is important, civics is important, American exceptionalism is important, and that political commentary is not important when teaching our children,” Lee said last week.

“That’s what this bill will accomplish,” Lee added.

The new law will take effect on June first.

With the new law, schools are barred from teaching that any individual is “inherently privileged, racist, sexist, or oppressive” because of race or gender.

The bill also bans schools from excluding white kids from school events and from holding events restricted to minorities.

The new law also takes a swipe at the idea of slavery reparations by adding that no one, “by virtue of the individual’s race or sex, bears responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race or sex.”

The schools are also banned for slamming Meritocracy by telling kids meritocracy is “inherently racist or sexist, or designed by a particular race or sex to oppress members of another race or sex.”

Some of the provisions of the bill include:

  • One race or sex is inherently superior to another race or sex.
  • An individual, by virtue of the individual’s race or sex, is inherently privileged, racist, sexist, or oppressive, whether consciously or subconsciously.
  • An individual should be discriminated against or receive adverse treatment because of the individual’s race or sex.
  • An individual’s moral character is determined by the individual’s race or sex.
  • An individual, by virtue of the individual’s race or sex, bears responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race or sex.
  • An individual should feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or another form of psychological distress solely because of the individual’s race or sex.
  • A meritocracy is inherently racist or sexist, or designed by a particular race or sex to oppress members of another race or sex.
  • This state or the United States is fundamentally or irredeemably racist or sexist.
  • Promoting or advocating the violent overthrow of the United States government.
  • Promoting division between, or resentment of, a race, sex, religion, creed, nonviolent political affiliation, social class, or class of people.
  • Ascribing character traits, values, moral or ethical codes, privileges, or beliefs to a race or sex, or to an individual because of the individual’s race or sex.
